Will this sharpen s30v steel well?

Hi. I don't know for sure. All I can say is that I have stainless steel kitchen knives and the sharpener works great on them. Just a few swipes through the sharpener and the previously dull knife will slice a tomato with ease. Whether the knives are made of s30v steel, I have no idea. Wish i could be more help. :)

No, it sharpens pretty quickly. It will continue to sharpen until you pull it out.

This wheel will sharpen tungsten carbide bits and blades. Using the flat surface is fine with a light touch.

Yes ,It will ,providing that the edge on that knife uses a asian style edge of 15 degrees. The sharpener does a decent job. When you sharpen a knife put a peice of paper below the sharpener. and dont forget to wash the knife.

Very! A little sharpening will make it better also. That is what I also use it for

All three of these are stainless steels. To keep things simple, the harder the steel the harder it will be to sharpen, the softer the steel the more often it will need to be sharpened. 440HC and 8CR13MoV are approximately equivalent higher carbon SS, with the 8CR being from China. They will dull faster than S30V but are easier to sharpen. S30V is, being harder and holding an edge better, considered a better choice for knife blades. The softer steels are not bad choices however; they may dull faster but are relatively easy to sharpen, and that's what you get in return for a lower price point for the knives.

As others have stated, you may want to sharpen it, after that it will work well.

No, unfortunetly. It will work on anything with a straight blade (hand pruners, pruning shears, old fashioned hand hedge trimmers, and even a knife) but it is not intended to sharpen anything with a serrated edge (example-any sort of saw with teeth)

I don't think so. The sharpening "steel" is in the form of a v. You need the WorkSharp Knife And Tool Sharpener!

I have my Tormek set-up to sharpen cutlery. After I mount the blade in the clamp device, no more than two minutes, if that. If all the edge needs is a touch up, a minute. Then I steel it and it's done.

So long as its not a serrated edge, it should. Straight edges only for this sharpener.

I bought the S30V steel because it is the hardest and densest metal particles available. The others are close but no cigar. The average user will never notice the difference. If you are a blade nut, each blade steel has its advantages and disadvantages. I have some experience with blade steel and put my trust more in the powder steels as best. Remember, when it comes to blade steel, you get what you pay for.

Check with your local hardware store about sharpening. My local Ace store said it can sharpen the chain for $7.

I would say no , My mower blades are slightly concave and this 9820-2 is designed to sharpen flat straight blades only

Yes & no! It will change the degree of angle on your Shun knives but it will also sharpen them. Why not purchase an electric whetstone sharpener built specifically for the Shun knife?

It should not matter who made the knives in question, this sharpener should be able to handle them well - unless you have "ceramic" (white or black blades) rather than steel blades. Those will probably require specialized diamond sharpeners.

It will sharpen most any straight edge knife. I use it on kitchen, pocket, and hunting knives. It works great.
